If you want to give me stats, show me the stats specific to the Calgary Flames and what calls have gone their way vs. haven't... at least those would be somewhat more meaningful.

It shows that in there as well. 3 have been called against Calgary and all 3 went against them. Those numbers are as of January 22 though, I couldn't find more current figures in a quick search.

They turned the blueline camera off so they could save money to add more cameras in the Staples Centre to continue to cover the Golden Boy 24/7 and have many, many more angles to show his every move.

The Ducks aren't allowing close in shots very much. They are giving up the points, but it seems like they are willing to let that happen.

In looking at the replays, two terrible goals let in by Elliott. Thats the difference in this game. No rebound control on one and weak 5 hole at a bad angle on the other.

Including close-ups on his crossovers!!

[Redliner]

Man the ducks are blocking everything.

[zamler]

Only 16:00 until another loss.

[Gaudfather]

Gibson will never let another one by him!

Right and I don't recall any calls since January going our way either, do you?

Anyway, regardless if it isn't a conspiracy, it's just an unspoken F you against the Calgary Flames by all refs- and I think that's actually pretty realistic. The refs probably see themselves as some kind of brotherhood kinda thing, and they just lost their buddy for his career thanks to Wideman. Therefore the Flames will pay the price.

That was the wrong call hands down. That guy was offside. I am flabbergasted people would even debate it. The guy is a couple feet inside the blueline.

Goalies are creatures of habit, getting the call on an off day with little or no notice is part of their job, but of course it will have an effect on their game.

I betcha starter Elliott doesn't let in that second goal that sudden relief Elliot let in.

Gibson has a shutout over a period and a bit.

Flames need to up the pace a bit. Ducks are just playing a controlled game to kill time and not allow momentum.

[JurassicTunga12]

Hit the net please.

[activeStick]

Hit the net Hamilton, you're in a prime scoring area in the slot!

[direwolf]

Dammit Hamilton, get that on net!

Look out, Fowler is down for the Ducks

[nwflamesfan]

Fowler in alot of pain

[Redliner]

Bennett is actually having a hell of a game. Just wish he could get back in touch with his offensive side.
